What is RSS and what does it have to do with nursing? William Perry, MA, RN [email_address]
The Challenge How can I find information when it’s stored in a dozen different places?
Where did I find it? No single repository  No single best medium  Resides in multiple human  and electronic networks
Technology - cause and cure? Technology is a reason for information proliferation so let’s use some technology to help manage the situation
But first a couple of questions How many professional journals do you subscribe to?  Scan? How many websites/blogs/forums/twitter sites do you regularly follow?
A possible solution RSS can have changes and updates from on your favorite sites delivered to you electronically  Free!
At the end of this session You will be able to: Set up 2 kinds of RSS readers Find journals, podcasts and discussion groups (and more) with RSS feeds Know where to go for more information
What is RSS Rich Site Summary   or  Really Simple Syndication Subscribe to your favorite resources using a Feed Reader Automatically checks for new content
